Which player achieved the “Golden Slam” by winning all four major tournaments and Olympic singles gold in 1988?

Fact

Did you know?

In 1988, Steffi Graf successively won the Australian Open, Roland-Garros, Wimbledon and the US Open, achieving the calendar Grand Slam in singles. She added the Olympic gold medal in Seoul, accomplishing what is called the "Golden Slam." This combination of four major tournaments and the Olympic title in the same year remains unique in singles. Margaret Court had also won the four majors during 1970. Asking only which player achieved a calendar Grand Slam therefore made two correct options; the mention of Olympic gold precisely distinguishes Graf.
